E. B. White was born in New York in 1899 and died in 1985. He kept animals on his farm in Maine and some of these creatures crept into his books, such as STUART LITTLE which was made into a blockbusting film in 2000. He received many awards including the Laura Ingalls Wilder Medal in 1970, an award given every five years to authors who have 'made a substantial and lasting contribution to literature for children'. 埃尔文·布鲁克斯·怀特(1899-1985),美国当代著名散文家、评论家,以散文名世。生于纽约蒙特弗农,毕业于康奈尔大学。作为《纽约客》主要撰稿人的怀特一手奠定了影响深远的 “《纽约客》文风”。怀特对这个世界上的一切都充满关爱,他的道德与他的文章一样山高水长。除了他终生挚爱的随笔之外,他还为孩子们写了三本书:《夏洛的网》、《精灵鼠小弟》与《吹小号的天鹅》,同样成为儿童与成人共同喜爱的文学经典,被誉为“二十世纪读者最多、最受爱戴的童话”。 |
